Student Visa for
Germany
All persons who wish to study at a high school, college or
university in Germany are required to obtain a residence permit.
All visas are not the same. A “tourist visa” cannot be converted
into a “student visa” and as a tourist, you are not eligible to
study in Germany.
The visa must be issued before you can enter the country; you should
therefore apply for it in good time. The responsible body is the
German Embassy or Consulate General in your country, which can also
provide you with further information.
Three Types of Visa for International Students
--- A language course visa, which cannot be subsequently
converted into a student visa. It is valid only for the duration of
the course.
--- A three-month study applicant’s visa, which is valid if you have
not yet obtained university admission. After admission, it must be
converted as quickly as possible into a resident permit for student
purposes at the office for foreigners’ affairs.
--- The visa for study purposes, valid for one year. In order to
obtain this visa, you must provide proof of admission and financial
support for the duration of study.
Documents Required
-- A valid passport
-- Passport Size photos
-- Entitlement to university admission, as recognized in Germany
(usually a high school diploma or graduation examination
certificate)
-- Evidence of previous academic performance
-- Proof that complete financial support for one year is guaranteed
The visa application is submitted at the German Embassy or the
German Consulate in your country of residence – preferably as early
as possible. German Embassy or Consulate personnel can provide
further information.
